I studied an entire week. Prepare mentally for this big interview that’s happening today. Canceled all meetings, including a call with a client. 30 minutes before, I dress as sharp as possible. Seat at the best possible lighting and adjust camera. Open up my emails to look for the zoom meeting link. Then, I found out the interview is next Friday, not this one 🤦🏻. I don’t deserve this job 🥴

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
